Executive MBA
The Executive MBA (EMBA) is a hybrid 16-month cohort based program designed for leadership in both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. Candidates with at least 5 years of managerial experience, seeking to enhance their understanding and ability to integrate business disciplines with their managerial skills and leadership effectiveness are best served by our EMBA format.
Classes are delivered online and every other Saturday at the UTEP Graduate Business Center in Downtown El Paso. Every EMBA cohort is purposefully kept small and ranges between 20-30 students to maximize meaningful discourse and networking opportunities.
The EMBA is a key component of the talent management efforts of successful organizations.
